I still need to get around to watching that. It's difficult downloading a whole series now that I can't use the dedicated T1 lines at work and the only internet I have at home is my phone. Granted I chose not to have internet, or a computer currently, at the house but sometimes it's darn inconvenient.

I know I'm going to have people ganging up on me, but I'm going to be real here for a second - I'm not nearly as enthusiastic about these releases as I used to be. I was counting down the days until the Zyuranger and Dairanger releases, but I've yet to pick either of them up. Why? I'll most likely never re-watch them (with a new sentai AND rider coming out every year, plus a huge backlog to go through i'll never run out) and I find very little value in collecting dvds anymore - I only want stuff I know i'll want to re-watch. I'd be more than happy to watch them on Netflix, Hulu, or another streaming service - I get a more enjoyable experience from it and the companies get money for it.
I'm glad to see that Sentai has a bigger foothold in the US now, and that these releases are doing well enough to justify more. I'm happy for all of the people that see value in buying these sets as well. But for me personally, all it's doing is limiting my options for what I can watch online. I have limited funds and simply can't justify the cost in any way. Yes, I know, I'm a terrible fan. Also, this is $60, not $40.

I still buy physical copies because I always go back to it. Netflix, Hulu and other streaming websites won't have everything since their rights to expire over time. Also if the Internet goes down, at least I have something to watch. I also hate digital downloading sometimes when you can't re-download something again seeing that you will get a "Your computer is not authorize to play or watch this song, movies or TV show" message on sites like Itunes.

Amazing looking cover!
It was Harorangers. I'm not even sure they are around anymore to even know to take the files down. Quote:

You're weird. Quote:

DVD/BD: You own it. You can do whatever you want with it. You can let friends borrow it. You can sell it if you decide you don't want it. You can put it on your shelf. The video and audio quality are the best currently available, if not forever. Streaming: You can only watch it as long as that streaming service allows you to. The video and audio will only be as good as your connection, your playback device, and as good as the servers will allow (which will never match up to a physical release). You have to constantly get that streaming service to watch it. Netflix has proven to me why streaming is idiocracy. You know what movie they took off when October 1st hit? The Exorcist. WHY WOULD YOU REMOVE A TOP TIER HORROR MOVIE BEFORE HALLOWEEN??!! They also rarely carry the movies I want to watch. Out of the 50 Film Noirs I own, Netflix only actually streams 2 of them, and one of them is no longer available. They can't even be bothered to stream The Simpsons, Batman TAS, X-Men, X-Men Evolution, Spider-Man TAS, they only have the third season of Ultimate Spider-Man, etc. Quote:

I guess we will get Megaranger later if things go well. We should be done with the 90's Super Sentai (Post-Zyuranger) by next year.

I'm glad they've started using the characters in suit since Ohranger's release. Just makes the covers pop so much more~
So I'm assuming Megaranger will be later this year?
